This paper examines the authorship pattern of 419 papers contributed to COLLNET Conference proceedings during the period 2011-2015. The ranked authors list is prepared to identify the most prolific authors who contribute significantly to the areas of bibliometric study. Authorship Pattern is studied to understand collaboration behavior and it is found that maximum papers are written by multiple authors. The degree of collaboration is significantly high, which is 0.7852. Lotka’s law was tested using Kolmogorov-Smirnov goodness of fit test and it is found that Lotka’s law is not found fit in the observed distribution of COLLNET Conference Proceedings.

This research develops a methodology based on easy and friendly algorithm for spreadsheets, a well known interface for calculus. It aims to present a helpful tool for forestry students, as well as for newly or experienced engineers who haven’t already known adjustment techniques for a density function model of probability, which is useful into diametric distribution structure descriptions of forest population. It has Weibull’s function as main model, percentile as adjustment method, and comparing simulations by Kolmogorov-Smirnov goodness-of-fit test. Efficiency of the presented method was tested by comparison to another method.Keywords: Forest management; forest - mathematical models; forest - computer simulator.

Optimal Order Quantity

The researchers build an inventory model for retail stores by validating their economicorder quantity through data driven simulation. This paper created an inventoryoptimization model for a personal care retailing business, to avoid stock out and minimize their holding cost and ordering cost. Simulating a thousand different scenarios, the research come up with an optimal inventory model for the two most sellable products in the store. The t-test reveals that product A has a significantly higher demand than product B. The simulation model validates the optimal order quantity of 59 units, with a reorder point of 25 units for product A. However, the simulation model recommends an optimal order quantity of 37 units and a reorder point of 10 units for product B. The Kolmogorov-Smirnov Goodness of Fit Test reveals the normal distribution of the 30 days inventory for Product A but not for Product B. Confirming that stocks out will unlikely happen for product A but will probably occur for product B. The model confirms EOQ findings of product with relatively high demand but low price but a departure for products with low demand but the high price.Keywords: Operations management, retail inventory system, t-test, Monte Carlo Simulation,Kolmogorov-Smirnov Goodness of Fit Test, Davao City, Philippines, Southeast Asia

Abstract The Kolmogorov–Smirnov goodness-of-fit test is used in many applications for testing normality in climate research. This note shows that the test usually leads to systematic and drastic errors. When the mean and the standard deviation are estimated, it is much too conservative in the sense that its p values are strongly biased upward. One may think that this is a small sample problem, but it is not. There is a correction of the Kolmogorov–Smirnov test by Lilliefors, which is in fact sometimes confused with the original Kolmogorov–Smirnov test. Both the Jarque–Bera and the Shapiro–Wilk tests for normality are good alternatives to the Kolmogorov–Smirnov test. A power comparison of eight different tests has been undertaken, favoring the Jarque–Bera and the Shapiro–Wilk tests. The Jarque–Bera and the Kolmogorov–Smirnov tests are also applied to a monthly mean dataset of geopotential height at 500 hPa. The two tests give very different results and illustrate the danger of using the Kolmogorov–Smirnov test.

La investigación se realizó en el equipo de la reserva del Barcelona Sporting Club del fútbol ecuatoriano de primera división, cuyo objetivo se enfocó en validar una alternativa metodológica para el entrenamiento de la resistencia con vista a la competición en la altura, para ello se asumió un pre-experimento el cual permitió evaluar cuatro dimensiones, la primera relacionada con el conocimiento sobre el entrenamiento de resistencia para la competición en la altura; en este aspecto se trabajó con el cuerpo técnico del equipo. De igual forma intervino una muestra de 12 futbolistas seleccionados mediante un muestreo intencional, en esta se evaluaron tres dimensiones: la efectividad de las acciones ofensivas y defensivas, la segunda  analiza la cantidad de metros recorridos (Test de Cooper) y la tercera el VO2. Para el análisis estadístico de los datos se utilizó un test de bondad de ajustes (test de Kolmogorov-Smirnov: KS), los resultados permitieron aplicar un test paramétrico (T de Student). En cada una de las dimensiones analizadas los resultados arrojados fueron significativos siendo p=.000. Para el análisis estadístico se empleó el paquete SPSS 23.0. Los resultados del estudio demostraron como resultado de la aplicación de la propuesta un incremento en la efectividad en la utilización de la técnica para  crear y solucionar situaciones en los últimos 15 minutos de juego, en concordancia se observó  un mejor estado de las manifestaciones externas de la carga física y la capacidad de resistencia aerobia a partir del incremento del VO2.Summary: The research was carried out with the reserve team of Barcelona Sporting Club from the Ecuadorian soccer first division. The objective was to validate a methodological alternative for endurance training focused on competitions at altitude. The pre-experimental design of the study was directed to evaluating four dimensions. The first one concerned developing knowledge about endurance training for competitions at altitude; in this aspect, we worked with the technical staff of the team. In the same way, a sample of 12 players was selected using intentional sampling, three dimensions being evaluated: effectiveness of offensive and defensive actions; meters covered (Cooper test); and maximum volume of oxygen (VO2). Data analysis was based on goodness of fit test (Kolmogorov-Smirnov test [KS]). Data normality allowed to apply parametric tests (Student's T). Results were significant in each of the analyzed dimensions, being p = .000. SPSS 23.0 package was used for statistical analysis. Results of the implementation of the method demonstrated an increased effectiveness in using technical skills to create and solve situations in the last 15 minutes of the matches, at the same time as we could observe a better state of the external manifestations of physical load as well as improved capacity of aerobic endurance derived from the increase in VO2.

This paper presents a bibliometric analysis of the journal “The Journal of Entrepreneurship” for the period between 2007 to 2013.The analysis cover mainly the distribution of articles volume wise, Year wise authorship pattern, geographical distribution of articles, distribution of citations, forms of documents cited, length of issues length of articles. All the studies point towards the merits and weakness of the journal which will be helpful for its further development. The study reveals that journals accounted highest number of journal citation with 1525 (51.87%) Followed by books with 798 (27.14%) and Seminar/conference Proceedings /Thesis sources 233(7.93%) Citations ,Reports 221(7.52%) citations, and Web sites with163(5.54%) citations it was seen that the majority of the authors use mostly journal articles for their article publications
